Sounds like the battery is giving up, it is getting so hot because it is struggling to charge the cells. Most repair stores will replace it for you or you can buy the battery and replace it yourself, this website probably sells them.

To have someone else do it, I wouldn't pay a !&&* of a lot to do the job maybe like €35? It would be cheaper to do it yourself but if you break it your screwed, if they do the repair it is on them to do it correctly.
